The walkthrough that wasn't....

It started out as a walkthrough... slick, easy to use, multiple lists and options. Then something went wrong... it began to slow, to warp itself, and, eventually... it became the WALKTHROUGH ZOMBIE!!!

Yes, what once was an innocent walkthrough, seemingly helpful in its nature, has become a brain ...

Two Questions... utter confusion....

I am currently hacking my way through the (suddenly challenging!) Catacombs Cellar 1, and have encountered a strange phenomenon:

There is an area south of the initial entrance, beyond the multiple fires with the smell of burning flesh, where several groups of Orog Brute's, Hoodoo's and whatnot all ...

Dice rolls on are the right alt key, not the left. I walk my rogue back and forth, but usually I do this after I have determined already that there is a secret door there. If you have dice rools on, and you walk your party by a blank door wall (which I always do) and you get no signs of skill checks ...

It seems your save-game files were corrupted. I lost one of my save-games when I installed this patch. I had saved the save-game folders before i installed, and, looking back at that particular slot, it was indeed corrupted... but it still worked before the patch.

Chance to win the lawsuit: .03% tops.

Things that the lawsuit will change, win or lose: Ubi-soft will hire some more lawyers.

Result: More company expenditures, lawsuit threats which lower stock prices and scare away shareholders.

Must agree... expected an hack-em and slash-em, listened to the developer's interviews, knew what to look for and got it. Yes, I wanted a plot, no, I didn't expect one. Yes, wanted more interactive npc's, no, didn't expect them.

I just went back and did it again to make sure. What I am doing is this:

I myself have ruined many a game by using the spoilers to see what I should be doing instead of finding what I missed.

Well, sir, you have options. I am not fully aware of where I found the rusted key, but, to your good fortune, it is not entirely necessary.

I do not understand that last post, but I do know that I, initially, had some trouble getting the "collapsing platform" to collapse. You really have to get right up on its southern side for the cursor's "walk" icon to appear and allow you to get on top of it. Keep trying.

With regard to the original question:

The flow of the game's entrances and exits indicates that they intended that one explore the upper halls first, perhaps all the way to the top of the tower there (room of words).

I did this and, having already explored most of the closed-off areas of the deep ...

You get experience when you drink from the wells of the earthborn winds in the halls of stone (or was it light). There are three different wells, and each bequeaths a good deal of experience to whoever drinks from them. (I leveled up three different characters from them). The first well, in the deep ...

There is an entrance to that level from the marsh area in the city heights. If you go through it, it brings you to that level via the entrance at the bottom right which is "locked from the other side" if you try to enter from the dungeon. This entrance brings you in just to the right of the ...

No they are not all in the deep halls. I think that the above fellow is either confused or just mean. Lord knows we don't need any more time in this game spent running from empty place to empty place.

The third is in the halls of stone, at the top of the map towards the left. Just follow the upper ...
